Throwback Thursday

This is the
Speedy Turtle Quilt. I made this for one of my sisters back in 1995. She raised
tortoises (still does) and Speedy was one of them. The turtles are made with
some really pretty green fabrics, which don’t translate well in this old photo.
This was hand quilted and I remember that it was a very emotional time for me
while stitching it because my sister was ill at the time and I wanted to get it
finished for her. I did, and she’s fine, so it’s all good!
